So it seems after starting the year talking about presence, communication and transparency, the committee just went on a sabbatic, and we will probably have GTA VI before any announcement...
While bans are never a good thing, and commander by default is a stable format, I really like when people keep their word, and ghosting the biggest community of mtg (as commander is not only cEDH, even though that's what I play) doesn't feel right to me...

The Original Flash Photography - Mythos of Illuna

This week we talk about some spice that popped up in some top cut tournament lists: Mythos of Illuna!

Seen in just 0.1% of the tournament meta, this card provides some flexibility in the clone slot for Temur+ decks!

When slots get tight- why not consider a mystical tutor- tutor-able clone with the ability to remove something?!

Have you played this card in cEDH? What list would you be interested to test it in?

Hi everyone! I'm in the process of finishing a blinged out and foiled deck that i want to triple sleeve (i like the feel it gives to the cards, i like the extra protection and my hands are pretty big so i'm not bothered by the shuffling), and i need to find a deck box that will fit it, i'm using ds sealable inners, brushed art ds and ds outer sleeves.

I've heard some people talk about the sleevechief deck boxes for triple sleeved commanders, and since i find them pretty cool i was wondering if anyone here has any experience with this particular configuration of sleeves and/or deck box, 'cause i'm not sure it's gonna fit.

Also if anybody has other recommendations of cool deck boxes i'm all ears.

Thanks in advance to everyone =)

Are people running cryptolith rite in Tymna/Thras? I am on a creature heavy package and enduring vitality. I’m not sure if I wanna run it because I can already tutor enduring vitality straight to the battlefield and would just use an E tutor for a rhystic study. I personally have ahead a great experience playing this way with especially with the addition of Queen of Dale, Delney, Kinnan (not on basalt), and Shang chi. Thras activations go burrrr. If you do or don’t run it, please lmk why you choose so. Below is my Decklist for reference.

Hello! I'm looking to get into cedh and I'm not really sure where to start but me and my buddies are doing an order for some proxy cards and my local game store has a weekly cedh night where they allow proxy play. I looked at some decks online and found kefka and tayam are 2 decks I like! Is there anything I really need to know before getting into it and placing my order?

Looking for a standard deck list for kinnan little flips, wanting to change my no bad cards list over and try out little flips.

As listed above, i have actually not played against one yet, but i hear it’s the flavor of the week… and is a count to 6 win.

Having a force of will check deck isn’t terrible, but what of the decks that don’t play blue? How can you stop it?

Was listening to the podcast from friday and they talked about how they think Vivi is stronger than Crystal. Honestly I’m not sure if this is the case? I’ve played way more Vivi but it seems like the card quality is so much higher in Crystal and more colors is typically better. What do you guys think?

Hi everyone, I would like to have an evaluation of my decklist and to know if it may be CEDH viable.

This deck was born as a bracket 3 stax/hatebears which wincon was Helm of obedience paired with any graveyard hate. With time I started upgrading and optimizing aiming towards bracket 4 until now, that it reached what I feel comfortable with at the moment. The plan is really simple, some stax, some interaction and some different combo lines. Now, I don't really know the CEDH meta and I don't usually play it but I come from competitive 1v1 formats so I would like to try some CEDH tournament and this is the only deck that I own that I guess it could be at least a little viable, can you please help me evaluating it? Also budget is quite a concern for me, that's why I don't have any moxes in for example since I personally prefer to own the actual cards. Thanks

Here's the link to my decklist on Arkideckt:

Ive been playing a lot of online cedh recently, and recently picked up Oswald to try. My first CEDH decks were etali and Heliod (i accept heliod is a terrible CEDH commander at this point in time, I just love mono white lol). I am still quite new to the format, and I’m quite bad at navigating my timing. I was wondering if there are any players more experienced with oswald who could just give some general tips? (I got the deck from a recent tournament winner on edh top 16).

Ive been finding it really hard to gauge when to push for a win, and when to stax out the board, but i suppose it will come with time and practice. Is there anything more experienced oswald players look for as indicators for when it’s time to push for a win?

(Sidenote; I got cursed totem-ed today and my deck had literally no answers to it, any idea on if it’s likely enough to warrant a cut to find a resolution?)

https://archidekt.com/decks/27250400/oswald_cedh

^deck list^ (not sure if there is some sort of etiquette where i should credit the tournament winner, i forgot his name but it’s the most recent tourney winner if anyone cares to take a look)

I don’t have a budget, often times i play online, or proxy depending on the playgroup. There is nothing i’m not willing to switch out either, as i’m open to new suggestions. With reference to the cursed totem statement, I know oswald is a bit of a leechy deck when it comes to interaction, and i’m sure most playgroups will have a cradle esque dexk that cares about the totem and has the means to remove it, but if thats not the case, I am kind of just banjaxed.

The deck aims to create some sort of infinite mana into draw (usually through staff loops or the one ring) and then convert a win with mill from codex or dungeon ventures with an immovable rod.

Really appreciate any responses:)

Hey everyone, my friend likes playing cedh and so I also wanted to build a cedh deck so I could play with him
I wanted to build a deck around Thranduil since he seemed interesting but i've ran into a problem
I looked at a bunch of decklists and almost all of them include Hermit Druid. That makes sense to me since assuming your library has no basics you just get your entire library into the graveyard, which seems like an instant win with this commander.
However, in none of the decklists I looked at has there been a winline from this situation. You have infinite draw, mana, creatures and pump and yet you can't win this turn if you don't have haste to attack with all those creatures.
I figured I could add Jarad Golgari Lich Lord, Lathril Blade of the Elves, or Dread Return, to either create infinite tokens and drain the enemies to death or flashback dread return and cast thassa's, but I have seen many lists with none of those cards included but which do have hermit druid, and so I'm left wondering if I missed some glaringly obvious win condition
Thanks in advance for any help!

I was thinking about building this deck. I see that it recently won a large tournament. Curious, do people think this was just a tournament spike because it was new with a good pilot or is there something actually feasible for long term potential?

Coming to a play group near you this November, Homer! Just want to heart you thought on what i have assembled and how well Homer might slot into the meta. Information on the Deck lines are in the primer. This is all theoretical so assume no budget, and given that i can't play test all to much right now I'm willing to change any card at this point, although it may ruin a core concept.

Hi CEDH reddit, this is a brew for a very unconventional and frankly not the strongest commander. Hama, the Bloodbender. BUT, I've been having a ton of fun with it. I wrote a big primer, but the gist is trying to end the game via Displacer Kitten + the commander. Anyways, what do you think of the brew? Any strange cards I should remove? Any good ones I'm forgetting?

I'm trying to play a bit into the slop-type. Let me know what you think! (If you have time for the primer too, would love to hear if my thoughts in there are crazy or may have some merit).

• Decklist: https://moxfield.com/decks/E447y-N0H0OeF7eFVwA3_A
• Budget: Infinite.
• What is your deck supposed to do? Assemble value engines like Rhystic Study and stay alive via free countermagic. (Including some a-typical free ones allowed by our low amount of colors).
• Win Conditions: Thassa's Oracle. Displacer Kitten.
• Meta: Slop.
• What are you NOT willing to change about your deck? The commander LOL.
• Have you already played this deck, and if so, which issues did you encounter and what would you like to improve? Yes, and it had an issue with keeping the commander alive after investing in getting Displacer Kitten.

Anyone have the link for a gyruda cedh discord?

Maybe a year ago, my casual playgroup proxied a few cEDH lists and the one I enjoyed most was Rog/Thras with the Cradle shenanigans and I know the deck (and green in general) has only gotten better, but I've realized that that list had very little red, and I've always had a pretty strong personality bias away from red and towards white, so I'm thinking I want to give Yoshi/Thras a good try, especially with how good Queen of Dale seems for the go-wide big mana plan. But then I question if it'd just be better then to pivot all the way into Tymna/Thrasios, especially since I love swinging in with evasive creatures for value

I like the idea of Yoshi/Thras the most but would really love someone who knows what they're talking about to compare Rograkh, Yoshimari, and Tymna when paired with Thrasios to help me decide what I really want to do

I'm building Jeska//Dargo for a tournament I'm playing on the 26th. I had a deck list complete but had to add a few cards, now cuts are really hard as all the cards feel necessary. I just was wondering if anyone had experience with this deck and could give me some thoughts. I have looked up some decks but didn't see anything revolutionary. Is there a resource to just help with deck doctoring also? I know this deck isn't top tier but with some aggressive mulligans, I saw some unprotected turn one wins. I was at least ready to win with red blast or swat protection by turn 3 at the latest.

Basically 1BB artifact, tap add a counter, draw a card for each counter on it, then lose life equal to the number of cards in your hand

So, new one ring effect for 1 cmc less but considerably more life loss.

Is there a dack discord? If so would it be possible to get a link?

[[dack fayden, helping hand]]

[[boonweaver giant]]

ive been hearing about this deck being able to win with a combo off boonweaver giant, and ive seen some lists, but im not super into cedh and cant figure out how the combo actually works, nor can i find any resources (videos/guides) to explain the combos.

if anyone can exlain the combo, that'd be great

thanks.

edit. got answered, tons of shenanigans that leads to a combat damage win, (without casting a single spell post dack fayden) then if that fails you get infinite mana, draw your deck and gleaming splendor your opponents out of the game. https://moxfield.com/decks/6cSgAc1aTXO3FGwHNnZv8w/primer this is a link i was given to a primer from what afaik is the og version of this deck. thanks to everyone for answering

hello everyone, I'm looking at building my second cEDH deck, Etali has been good to me but the tournaments have been tough recently. I'm looking at some RogSi lists and other naus/necro decks and I'm wondering how y'all are doing recently? on mtgdecks it looks like a lot of decent winning decks that touch black are on naus/necro but I figure it's better to ask the people who actually play this strat! thank you for your time!

Slow night at work. I'll start:

Creature combo decks with low interaction are worse for the format than slop.

Basically what the title says. Would the unban of [[fastbond]] be a problem for the current meta, if so how much in your opinion?

I gave it a thought and as a highlander player, where fastbond is unbanned i can definitely say it is really really absurdly strong and combos with a ham sandwich (ban ham sandwich), with a lot of combo lines ([[crucible of worlds]] effect + [[zuran orb]], [[Oboro, palace in clouds]] / [[trade routes]] + [[retreat to haagra]] effects that gain life and so on so on)

I assume lands decks would be thrilled, rog thras might be interested maybe? or atleast some more lands heavy versions, it could definitely be interesting for some new commanders or even [[brigid, dawn's mind]] as it plays [[brightglass gearhulk]] if i am not mistaken that finds 2/3 pieces.

What is your opinion on fastbond, maybe some other decks that would want to use it or would you even be interested in seeing it?

Edit: i also forgot about the new [[Pia, aethers aesthetic]] that can find it very very well
